Athena
I stood there with my eyes flooding with shock and anger as I held the door ajar and watched that man's handsome face twistwith a complex emotion. He didn't seem prepared for this encounter, well who would be? I too wasn't expecting to catch my mate fucking another woman and cheating on my this boldly.
After observing him for a while, my eyes slipped towards the woman who was sitting next to him on the bed. She stared back at me; trying to conver herself with the blanket but I could still see her ample, round breasts and her fair naked body. My eyes couldn't help but swarm on the hickies that were all over her neck and chest; I may have found more if I looked lower but I couldn't make myself do it.
Rica, my wolf, howled inside me in pain after realising this brutal truth. I did not blame her for breaking down, the wounds of betrayal runs deeper than the ones made with a dagger.
My wrist balled into a fist and my eyes were turning bloodshot with wrath. I trusted this man with my eyes closed and always tried to give my best to him, going an extra mile everytime to make sure he was loved and cherished by me. He was my mate, the man who my mother told would be there for me forever. She used to say that a mate was someone who would protect me from things that even my sword couldn't. Turns out, she was wrong- this man gave me the kind of pain which was far worse than the one I received in battlefield.
I regretted ever letting my guards low and choosing to trust on someone else other than myself. I should have rejected this bastard the day I heard his name for the very first time.
Alpha Griffin Marrok…
I am not just another she-wolf from every other typical pack; I was an important figure and a well respected member back home. I have never been humiliated like this my entire life; let alone try to put me down, no one would even dare to do something that I won't like.
This made me hate my mate more! If eyes could kill, he would have been lying in the pool of his own blood along with his whore by now.
I regret meeting him and all this flooded the memories of that jinxed day back in my head.
I had just returned home from my daily training session that day, soiled in mud and sweat when I was told by the maids that my mom had a vision regarding me. My mother, Luna Sahara Devil, was blessed with this gifts which helped her predict the near future of people around her, this news got me curious because most of her predictions were true.
I went upstairs to her room, wondering what she saw for me. As soon as I picked the door open, I saw her sitting there elegantly on the couch, reading some documents. My mother was one of the most beautiful she-wolf I have watched walked on this Earth; she was quite powerful to be managing this pack alone after my father's demise.
She darted her head upwards and said, "Athena, you are here. How was your training?"
"Same as usual." I said before letting myself drop on the chair opposite to her, making myself look tired. I then said, "I heard that you had a vision concerning me." My mother nodded before breaking the news to me, "You are going to meet your mate soon."
I froze as I asked her in all seriousness, "Are you for real?"
"Yes!" My mother smiled, "Your wait is over."
"Thank you, mom!" I felt ecstatic when I heard this news, finally the time was here. Wolves usually find their mate when they are 19 but I was 23 already, this news came as a huge relief to me.
When was it going to happen?
Tomorrow? Day after tomorrow?
Every kind of question was raising inside my head as I could not contain my excitement anymore. My mother has always told me that finding a mate is a blessing for every werewolf and there couldn't be anything better than it. In the world where you cannot trust anyone, you will have someone who will remain by your side forever.
I went back to my room with nothing but my mates thoughts swirling inside my head. I removed my gloves and looked at my palm which was rough and untidy because of the training I went through today. My mate would have a rougher palm than mine, that way he would find me soft and meak.
Being the daughter of two greatest wolves of all time, I had my pack set certain standards for me and since I was young, I have lived up to it without a hitch. I was stronger than most men in the pack and had the crown of 'undefeatable' on me but there was something the world would never know. The almighty Athena Devil, daughter of Sahara and Atlas Devil, loved to snuggle and read romantic books.
No one had ever seen this side of mine and I hoped that my mate would. Maybe he will be able to look through the surface and find me as a vulnerable and sensitive she-wolf who deserved to be cared for and protected.
Three days later…
"Hurry up! They are almost here. Get everyone seated."
There was rush and tension in the pack hall as something important was about to be organized here. Every year, the Alpha's of all the Pack in this land would come together for an annual meeting. This year we, the Amaroq Pack, were organizing this prestigious meet.
I and a few other wolves reached the main gates of our Pack village to welcome the guests. As expected, I could see the Alphas and their men standing afar, a little hesitant to enter our pack.
I pursed my lips, Amaroq had a reputation that scared everyone. I did not blame them, the rumours about us were indeed notorious and frightening.
I was about to go forth to assure the Alphas that they would be safe when I saw a tall figure emerge out of the crowd.
He was wearing a black casual suit and looked as if he was in his late twenties. Young and charismatic, he managed to stand out in all those powerful figures. I could not help but scan his face- sharp, black almond eyes with a focused gaze; chocolate locks and thin straight lips all fitting perfectly in his chiselled face.
I had to admit that I have never seen a man like this before, he looked as if he had jumped out of a painting.
"Welcome to Pack Amaroq." I greeted him politely, only to receive a slight nod as an acknowledgement. I did not mind as a Pack's Alpha would always be arrogant and he looked no different. What grabbed my attention was his scent, the man didn't smell like anything which was very uncommon for a wolf as every single one has a unique scent for themselves. My eyebrows furrowed in confusion, why was he hiding his scent?
